Part of me thinks he’d be amazing because of his skills as a captain that transfer (like knowing when to bluff), but also, it would be hilarious for him to make a big deal about finally joining them and then losing terribly because they play all the time and he never does.
That’s just it— he’d play it cool by losing a few hands at first then coming in cool to win big. See, Riker is big and showy, but Picard is a man of strategy. Riker wouldn’t see him coming.
Pre emotion chip? Nah. Picard would have too good of a poker face for Data to beat before he better understands emotions and has a “guy feeling” (despite lack of a gut)
Only if it’s this version from All Good Things… when Picard finally joins ❤️
I’d take that over hawking/einstein/newton/Data any day
He unlocks later after you get all the other achievements.
I always wondered if Picard would be great or terrible at poker.
Oh, c’mon…
Better than Riker? No. But I’m sure he could hold his own.

But, on the next hand, Data would have him. ;)
